The URO Mentor™ simulates 4 virtual scopes that include working channels for tool insertion. Actual tool handles operate as they do in real life, providing the necessary practice with endourology tools prior to work on patients.

A wide variety of tools provide the opportunity to become familiar with many of the types available today in the field of endourology. Simulator training removes the concern for damaging expensive tools and scopes during the process of learning to use them. The selection of tools available on the simulator includes:
